John McCain: 'I love being the underdog' (actual headline, NOT a Duzy)
:rofl::rofl::rofl: No, I won't be sorry for you, and yes, you need to work on not being sorry for yourself.

Sen. John McCain said Sunday he's "very happy" with the way his campaign is going, despite his "underdog" status in the polls. "We're going to be in a tight race and we're going to be up late on election night. That's just -- I'm confident of that. I've been in too many campaigns, my friend, not to sense that things are headed our way," McCain said Sunday on Fox News.

Sen. Barack Obama leads McCain by 6 points, according to CNN's latest average of national polls. "I love being the underdog. You know, every time that I've gotten ahead, somehow I've messed it up," the Republican candidate said.

Asked if Gov. Sarah Palin has become a drag on his ticket, McCain said, "As a cold political calculation, I could not be more pleased. She has excited and energized our base. She is a direct counterpoint to the liberal feminist agenda for America. She has a wonderful family. She's a reformer. She's a conservative. She's the best thing that could have happened to my campaign and to America," he said....
